Humorous Wedding Speech: Immigration To The United States
Good Morning Mrs. Foreman, and classmates. I would like to thank you all for gathering here today to listen to the speech I have created. Our current president Donald Trump, or some people’s president, has created an Immigration Ban that has caused an uproar in America.

“No hate, no fear, refugees are welcome here!” This small, but powerful sentence is being chanted by thousands of people at the nation’s most famous airports. This chant is because of Trump’s seismic move to ban more than 218 million people from the United States. This ban is to deny all entry to all refugees from seven major Muslim countries. These countries include: Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen, and Somalia.

All of the people from these countries are the roadkill of Trump’s doings. He is choosing to punish ordinary men, women, and children who are trying to flee terrorism from their own

People come to this country to find freedom, but can’t even find it. As soon as they come into this country they battle against endless amounts of hate regarding their race, and religion. How does this country have the ability of freedom of speech and freedom of religion and not allow it? It doesn’t make sense how this country is so diverse, but never unified. It seems like Trump is getting closer to turning off that lamp in the Statue of Liberty.

This country stands for so many rights, and freedoms. We all should be allowing it, not trying to stop it. Don’t give in to society and believe that everything going on right now is a good thing, because it isn’t. It’s just going to make this country drift farther apart from each other. Trump’s Immigration Ban is wrong in so many ways. He has it backwards, if he wants to “Make America Great Again.” he should start right here with the people in

    First off, WE'RE SCREWED. It was the last presidential election of our time. The candidates were terrible. It was either World War III(Hillary) or The Purge(Trump) and I guess America chose The Purge. So, I guess it's time to say goodbye to all people of mixed or other ethnicities, because Trump's gonna make us all go back. Time to say goodbye to those we befriended and growled to love. Goodbye to all the things that actually make this country GREAT. He says, "Let's Make America Great Again," but does he really mean it. America was created as a place where people all over the world can come and make something of themselves. Now it's a place where we look down on those who are different or those of us will different talents. We judge people…

    We write in response to Liam Stewart’s recent columns, “A Writer’s Response” and “Democrats applaud judicial overreach, again.” In doing so, we do not attack this specific author; instead, we counter the arguments currently employed to justify President Trump’s failed immigration ban, as represented by Stewart in the aforementioned articles.…

    While this concern is completely justified morally, the facts just don’t add up. According to CNN, “the primary perpetrators of the major terror attacks have mostly been US-born citizens or permanent legal residents originally from countries not included in the ban”. To summarize, refugees really are not the problem here! Most terror attacks that happen within the United States are domestic. Take Dylan Roof for instance, who stormed into an African-American church and shot nine people.…

    Muslim immigration to America has been occurring for decades, and is not a new thing. However, throughout history the U.S. government has had trouble creating a sensible Muslim immigration policy. Currently, president Trump—a man with bold and controversial policies--has enforced a temporary ban on Muslims until the American government can create a valid immigration policy. American people are in turmoil while deciding whether or not they should allow the U.S. government to put restrictions on Muslim Immigration. Some Americans are concerned that Muslim immigration will jeopardize America's security, while others feel it is America's duty to be compassionate and welcome immigrants.…

    The TRO restricts the enforcement of President Trump's executive order widely known as the "Travel Ban" or "Muslim Ban". The executive order bans individuals from seven countries entry to the U.S.A. for 90 days, suspends the refugee program for 120 days and suspends Syrian refugees indefinitely. The order also states that exceptions may be made in some cases "when in the national interest". However, it does not provide any explanation as to what qualifies as being in the national interest, or who evaluates the cases. The order goes on to direct that when the refugee program resumes operation, refugees of certain religions would have prioritized applications. The government insisted that the bans were a matter of protecting the nation from terrorism. The bans were put into place immediately, causing a widespread and very controversial effect.…

    While it is not touched upon in any great detail in To Kill a Mockingbird, it is one of the key debates in the upcoming elections. Of course, no one says that it is about religion; they claim that they are fighting terrorists, protecting the country, etcetera. Republican front-runner Donald Trump has recently issued a statement saying that America should ban all Muslims from entering the country. According to CNN, “Trump, who has previously called for surveillance against mosques and said he was open to establishing a database for all Muslims living in the U.S., made his latest controversial call in a news release. His message comes in the wake of a deadly mass shooting in San Bernardino, California, by suspected ISIS sympathizers and the day after President Barack Obama asked the country not to "turn against one another" out of fear.” Donald Trump: Ban All Muslim Travel to U.S. - CNNPolitics.com." CNN. Cable News Network, n.d. Web. 10 Dec. 2015. People are so fearful of different religions that they are not even willing to let them set foot in the country, in the land of the…

    They set principles that we are all “separate but equal” to this newly founded land, but how true was that statement? Immigrants from Europe were welcomed with open arms, but what about those from China or Africa? They were put to work as slaves or into immigration camps. What example does this provide for the future generations to come? This showed that it had been okay to treat certain races as not equal to those of the European descend. The founding fathers believed that they had done good in welcoming many to come and own acres of land for no price, but not to every immigrant. This example has been seen not only throughout the history of America, but also to this current day. Many choose to harass those of a different race. With our newly elected president, we find it even more difficult to live in peace with one another. He sets a horrific example, not allowing immigrants of certain countries to be entered into the United States. He has personally stated those of Mexican descends, Muslims, and many other countries of the Middle East. He fears that they will cause harm when in reality it is those of the native country who have been terrorizing different races. This leader has been showing negative doings that will eventually harm not only those of a certain race, but also citizens in this country as…

    Vetting System

    Many people opposed Trump’s travel ban stating that none of the countries on the list proposed a threat to our national security. In many ways they are right. Trump claims that the countries on the list were responsible for 9/11. The original order also stated that green card holders and people with valid visas to work in the United States could not travel between our country and theirs until a more effective and efficient vetting system was put in place. In many ways, Trump is right. Our vetting system does take an extraordinarily long time and many immigrants find themselves waiting decades before their citizenship is granted. A more efficient system would prompt a quicker and easier entry to our country. However, constitutionally, you are not allowed to discriminate against any human regardless of religion, race or ethnicity. We can corroborate with the court cases like Korematsu’s that the detention or removal of a group of people from an entire country should never be allowed and that regardless of the war we are fighting. Citizens from those countries, unless under federal watch, should not have their rights infringed upon them due to scapegoating. Many great people from around the world come to work in the United States due to it’s endless opportunity and also many times because of the rights granted to each individual. A personal example is with my father. As a director at Google, he spends his time with people of every race, religion, sex for the majority of his day. Trump’s travel ban would prevent many people like the men and women my father works with from continuing to support their families, and would also prevent them from trying to build a life for themselves. In times of war, in many ways the President should take executive action to ensure the safety of our…

    Donald Trump. He is the anomaly in politics, the one who doesn’t play the game by its rules. During the recent presidential race, Donald Trump has expressedhad extremely strong feelings pertaining to immigration, refugees, and foreign policy, stating, “How stupid are they to allow this to happen? ... Here in Minnesota, you’ve seen first-hand the problems caused with faulty refugee vetting, with large numbers of Somali refugees coming into your state without your knowledge, without your support or approval, and with some of them then joining ISIS and spreading their extremist views all over our country and all over the world." (INSERT CITATION HERE) Following During the first couple days of his presidency, Donald Trump has made executive rulings…

    Trump should not only blame Mexico for all crime activities resulting from illegal immigration such as drug traffickers, gangs, and cartels. Many of the crimes that America has seen has not only be committed by illegal immigrants. There has been similar cases of rapes, shootings, robberies, and killings in the news involving both black and white Americans as well. Even if Mr. Trump kick all them out, this will not solve all the problems. Some of these illegal immigrants pay taxes and work hard to provide for their family. In fact, the undocumented immigrants leave their own country, Mexico, in search of better life, job opportunities, and safety. The American dream is the driving force of melting pot and HB2. I think Mr. Trump is being a little bit unfair with undocumented immigrants because many of the American citizens are born of undocumented immigrants. By enforcing mass deportation, Mr. Trump is going to divide families. His attitude against undocumented could eventually result in more hatred against him and the country itself. By cancelling visas, the relationships between the United States and Mexico can be jeopardized. The Mexican government may decide to cut economic ties with the United…

    The United States is considered “the land of opportunity” for everyone. America welcomes the people that other countries don’t want, or at least we used to. The Statue of Liberty even says “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”-The New Colossus. America once expected immigrants to come in and rise up the ranks, become wealthy and to live the “American Dream”. Immigrants thought this too, and that’s why they took many, many great risks to get here. But, now, Donald Trump thinks immigrants are taking away our jobs and polluting our ‘Merican blood. He is putting a ban on any immigration, especially from Mexico…

    While the issue of immigration has always been a major political topic during an election year, it is a major “hot topic” issue this year because depending on who wins this year’s election there could potentially be major reforms on the horizon. The republican candidate, Mr. Donald Trump, has been very outspoken about his stance on immigration which has many families worried. Worried that they may be forced to leave this land that they call home where they’ve lived peacefully for many years. The very vision the founding fathers had for America is rooted in the ideal that immigrants will make our nation stronger by uniting their many nations and cultures under our flag. In “A Nation of Immigrants” President Barack Obama backed up this view by…
